3.beyond question 的意思是“毫無疑問地”；sensitize sb to sth 意思是“使某人對某事敏感起來”。
原文：Beyond question, his own disease sensitized him to the complex mix of expectations, needs, fears, and appreciation that patients feel when facing a physical-mental trial while at the same time looking forthat perfect physician to help them.

4.rheumatoid arthritis 風濕性關節炎
例句：The study was also too short to show whether TwHF can slow the joint damage caused by rheumatoid arthritis.
